It’s the beginning of a new year, which means new ideas, new goals, new directions. And maybe it means new approaches to building your business or ministry. This week, I’m kicking off the Business Builders series. We start makin strategic investments in your work in the areas of coaching, memberships, and training events.
You’ve probably been looking ahead at the new year, setting goals and making plans. If this is the year you are committed to taking things to the next level, this Business Builders series is for you. But wait … you might be saying “I’m a ministry, or a writer, or a podcast … not a business … I don’t have any plans to sell products or become a business.” Well, here’s an extra tip for you … if you’ll treat your ministry, writing, or podcast LIKE a business, it will grow faster and you’ll have the opportunity to share your passionate message with more people. So I think there is a lot here for you in these business-building principles.
In this episode, I want to focus on coaching-related investments because I’ve seen that this is one area where people often put off spending money.
My favorite example of coaching in the Bible is the relationship between Moses and his father-in-law, Jethro. In Exodus, chapter 8. Jethro looked over the situation and quickly knew that Moses needed help. He laid out a simple plan for Moses to delegate the tasks to other trusted men, so he could spend time on the big things related to accomplishing their mission.
